- Star Wars: Jedi Survivor is out soon, and so we thought you could use a Jedi Fallen Order Story Recap. Whether you've played the game or not, this recap is essential for understanding the Journey of Kal Kestis, and how it bridges the clone wars to the original Star Wars trilogy.

#FallenOrder #Survivor #Recap
Welcome to ScreenCrush, I’m Ryan Arey. Jedi Fallen Order is not only one of the best Star Wars Games ever made, but it's also a critical part of it’s canon.
Doug: but how would anyone know that if they never played the game?
Wait, you never played Fallen Order?
Doug: kinda hard without thumbs
Well then, let's recap the events of the game and tell you exactly where other shows and movies have borrowed from this story.
Fallen Order is set 5 years after the fall of the republic, placing it before the events of Obi-wan, Andor, and Rebels. [ Clip]
The game starts on Bracca ( Bra-Kah), a junkyard planet ruled by the Scrapper Guild - and the same planet that Rex takes Clone force 99 to remove their inhibitor chips in Bad Batch. [ Clip]
And This is where we meet our main hero, Cal Kestis, the Jedi Padawan who crash-landed on the planet after his master (Jair-O Tuh-pall) was executed in Order 66. [ Clip]
He's been hiding for years, but after he’s caught using The Force to save a co-worker, he attracts the attention of the Inquisitors.
Doug: the same inquisitors from Obi-wan and Rebels?
Yes and no. Same group, Same mission, different cast.
Doug: Ah, like Saved by the Bell: the new class.
Right, like that. Cal’s main “inquisitorius” rivals are The Second and Ninth sisters.
Doug: so, who are the inquistors?
They are force-sensitive Jedi hunters appointed by none other than Darth Vader. They’re ruthless and extremely competitive, especially with one another. [ Clip]
They discover Cal, and after a short chase, he tries going toe-to-toe with the Second sister.
Just before he’s been beat, Cere June (seer Joon), a former Jedi, and Greez (Gree-ze), a Lateron Pilot, swoop in and save him in their starship, The Mantis.
On board, Cere reveals that she’s a friend of Cal’s former master. She recruits him for a mission to Bogano (Boh-gone-Oh) in hopes of retrieving secrets from a vault that could potentially restore the Jedi Order. On Bogano, Cal finds his droid companion BD-1, the same model as one of Peli’s droids spotted in Book of Boba Fett. [ Clip:]
BD-1 then projects a message from Eno Cordova (en-Oh Core-dov-a), its former master, who claims to have had a vision about the fall of the Jedi and prepared for it by hiding a Holocron containing the location of force-sensitive younglings-and it’s hidden in a vault made by ancient force users called the Zeffo.
BUT, in order to ensure its security, he created a series of tests that had to be passed in order to get inside.
[Clip: “prepared is to you as not is to test” Freaky Friday]
Doug: Wouldnt be a good game without a test, right?
Exactly, so Cal and crew zip over to the planet Zeffo (Zef-O) where he receives another holo message from Eno - this time redirecting him to find the Wookie chieftain, Tarfful (Tar-full).- who you might recognize as Yoda’s main man in the battle of Kashyyyk, during Episode 3. [clip]
On the way to Kashyyk, Cere revealed that Cordova was actually her master and that she once had a padawan of her own. She explains how she went into hiding with some rescued younglings just after the purge-but was eventually found by the empire.
Doug: Wait, does this mean she could be the one who saved Grogu?
Absolutely! Or heck, even Reva! But back to the story.
Cal and the crew land on Kashyyyk - but can't find Tarfful - So Cal kills time by freeing some enslaved Wookies and ends up crossing paths with Saw Gerrera.
[Clip]
At this point in the rebellion, Saw is actively recruiting Jedi for the fight, and even though Cal declines, Saw agrees to help him find Tarfful anyways.
Doug: what a guy! - Krátké a kreslené filmy
You forgot a key lore detail and that is cal kestis's intense need to collect every poncho in the galaxy
😂
Should’ve called him Cal Ketchum.
Going to be laughing at this all day!
“Oooohhh look at the material”
Cringe comment
Small correction: Cal gets knighted by Cere on behalf of the Jedi Council as a Jedi Knight, he never got to that middle rank, he was only ever a padawan when he went into hiding. I just finished replaying this game and hiiiiighly recommend it. Favorite SW game and I can’t wait for the sequel. 🙏
Same thing happened to Kanan Jarrus in Rebels, he gets knighted by the ghost of The Grand Inquisitor.
10 days left man next friday is release 🙏
@@KaijuAKD no that was real, he ended up dying at the end of the episode
Thank you for saying this. I took that flub personally for some reason
Exactly what I was going to say. I think Ryan didn't actually play the game. 😂
The fight with Vader is one of the biggest reasons Cal destroys the holocron because it not only shows that Vader himself outclasses everyone but that he's relentless and vicious. It's a representation of a whole as to what the Empire would do to get their hands on those Jedi kids. It's not just that Cal doesn't think it's a good idea, it's that there is no room left for him to believe he has a choice.
That Vader fight was amazing! You feel like such a bad ass at that time and Vader comes in like a force of nature and beats you down easily. Only thing you can do is run. Perfectly done!
and then the obi wan series came
@@donsparklez7959 and makes Vader the same as in the OT where all he does is watch people escape xD
@@theaces3697 The classic Star Wars trope of having someone on the other side of the light fence being a near equal in power and, once seen as such, not being able to resist at least an attempt at converting them to the other side. Second only to villains monologuing until a savior swoops in to save the day.
I just beat it today and the vader sequence went hard af it was almost as good as the last 5 mins of rouge 1
The jedi master joke with the cutaway to anakin at 7:12 actually got me really good lmao
But he was actually made a knight so it wasn't even accurate
@@ag323that’s the joke
@@iloveowls90 cal not anakin
Lol came to the comments as soon as I saw that. Almost choked from laughing
The final vader fight in this game I remember being so impressed by. They made us feel like we were getting poweful but then really had no chill when showing how powerful vader is in comparison
Yes, I also love Tayron Mallickus
Trying to decide whether or not your pronunciation of Taron Malicos was so wrong on purpose or if you are just reading a script and didn't play the game yourself lol. Also, Cere Knighted him as a Knight, not a Master cause he was still a Padawan.
Feel like he’s definitely reading a script lowkey
He's just reading a script written by other people. He has a writing team for scripts. As for his lack of Star Wars knowledge u can't blame the guy he's making 100s of thousands of dollars just for googling facts about Star Wars. He doesn't know anything but what Wikipedia says and sometimes it's wrong lol
Yeah I wanted to point those mistakes out too, also the interrogation room. He said that Cere got tortured there then showed a scene of Trilla getting tortured 😂 Cere almost did but she got out in time.
He pronounces everything correctly later in the script, this is so odd lol
He mispronounces so many things in Star Wars it makes me cringe. I love his coverage of Star Wars and feel like he’s a true fan, but… come on man… it’s not like it’s a name never spoken out loud.
I actually felt more when BD-1 erased his memory than when it happened to C3PO. BD-1 actually AGREED to do it, showing he's brave, while C3PO was forced against his will. BD-1 didn't know if he'd ever get his memories back, but C3PO was reminded R2D2 kept a back-up before his memory was erased. BD-1's true friend said good-bye to him when it happened, while the audience was supposed to "care" when C3PO said good-bye to a bunch of near strangers who didn't care him anyway. Everything the movie did wrong, the game did right.
Yep. The sequels are hot garbage
The movies were so lame I forgot that even happed to C-3PO it took me a while to remember after reading your comment as well lol
Can you remind me why BD1 had his mind wiped? I don’t remember this at all
@@anthonyc7418 Eno, BD1's original owner, encodes his memories and programs BD1 to only unlock them once he finds a trustworthy companion, who ends up being Cal. It's a surprisingly sentimental moment.
One thing that is amazing about this game is the way it is it's own separate story about characters that aren't in the movies or shows, it's just it's own adventure in the Star Wars galaxy. It uses cameos sparingly and appropriately, especially Vader, who is utilized perfectly here: he's a classic movie monster. He's basically a force of nature, he's insurmountable, inspires dread, and motivates the character to flee.
Ryan, as someone who's always loved Star Wars, grew up with the prequels, but has never been a super fan - I find your content invaluable. Especially as I've never seen Clone Wars or Rebels. I've recently found a new love for the franchise thanks to the Disney+ series and Fallen Order and have gone back and rewatched all the films and used your videos to fill in a LOT of the blanks. Thanks for all the hard work!
Please watch the clone wars. It's perfect and makes order 66 even more tragic
Do yourself a favor and watch Clone Wars. You’re definitely missing out!
Same!
Watching the whole clone wars is time consuming as half the episodes are random fillers. I went to the list of episodes in wikipedia and picked out the more relevant ones (like those including mandalorians)

“Ma-lick-is?” That’s almost as stupid as thinking it’s a Cstand in the Ahsoka trailer.
Anything on lord Vader father king plagues wise he behind everything not palpatine he coming Luke Skywalker grandfather coming every one miss it
😅🤣
You really need to research your pronunciation of names, especially ones that are flat out said out loud.
Also, Cal was never promoted to Master, he was promoted to knight. He was a Padawan during order 66 and therefore never had the chance for promotion. Same thing happened with Kanan when he fought the force projection of the Grand Inquisitor when he was still a Jedi guard on the temple on Lothol.
Fallen order was a dream game for me it was basically a combo of two sorts of star wars games I had dreamed of a souls like star wars game ,and a uncharted style star wars game.
Absolutely loved this game and I got the platinum trophy on it! I also remember the story pretty well but your recaps are so entertaining and well done that I watch them anyways, even when I don’t need a recap! I’m absolutely excited for the 28th!
When I was watching Obi-Wan I literally couldn't believe that they did the same thing twice to escape the Fortress Inquisitorius by breaking by the glass and swimming out. Like you think in the five years since then Vader would've upgraded the glass a little or something.
I’ll die on the hill that we don’t need more skywalker related movies. So much lore fleshed out. You can go anywhere and do anything
Thanks so much for making this video Ryan! What a legend
Jedi: Fallen Order was filled with easter eggs to past Star Wars lore. I loved the game a lot, and enjoyed everything about the story, characters, and worldbuilding. I am so excited for Jedi: Survivor.
I normally don't pre-order video games, but Jedi: Survivor looks like it might be the one for me to pre-order instantly!
Great review as always ryan as a fan of the first one can't wait for the second ones.
I think the story you just laid out is better than almost every Star Wars story we’ve gotten in recent time aside from Andor
Fact
Thank you for this I really love this game but even I needed this
Your Star Wars analyses are always interesting and also interestingly accurate. I keep forgetting to like your videos, but I watch them constantly. I will do a better job at hitting that blasted button.
Great video!! Watched this right before playing Jedi Survivor. Perfect recap!
I was just thinking that I hope someone would put something together like this. I needed exactly this video. Thanks!
5 Star Wars videos in a row. I like it
Love your channel, so much awesome Star Wars content! Great work love all your videos!
Hey, @screencrush! What about doing a recap of the book Jedi: Battle Scars as well? Would help a lot of ppl that didn't read the book but wants to know every information there is available before the new game.
Please NEVER bring up that book again, those of use that tried to listen to it are still in therapy, we wanted a Star Wars book, not a teen lesbian romance novel, and this has nothing to do with it being lesbian... but more the fact that it was jsut TOO MUCH
Oh your God! THANK YOU for doing this because I always feel like I'm missing so much story by not playing this game(no time to play an entire game until retirement). Absolutely needed! You're incredible!!!!!!☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Extremely well done dude
Glad u made this vid I needed this
I like that screen crush had expanded on their topics. Rather than just episode reviews, I like looking at your theories and other SW lore
This game is one of my faviorite starwars projects ever. The game play, story, characters, all of it, so amazing and I love it. Cannot wait for the sequel.
Nice this was a pleasant surprise to see on this channel!!
got jedi survivor downloading now, thanks for the recap!
I played the first game and recently started a new playthough to recap before I play the new one. Thank you for this! Saved me a lot of time. LOL!
These are slowly becoming my favorite series on the channel tbh
It was doug face expressions for me he is hilarious love him😂❤.
I really like these game recaps!
thanks for this
Corrections:
1)BOGANO* (Not Bogona)
2)Cere Junda *(note cere June)
3)Cal has to fix his connection to the force throughout the whole game , when he meditated he used to lose control like on dathomir but through the game he focuses his rare force ability to see the past by touching an object.
4) merin doesn't join cal because she finds out the truth but because Taron malicos was just using her and the night brothers to gain power.
5) The main storyline of the game is call recovering all remaining poncho's after the great poncho purge aka order 69
While you’re at it -
Ēno (not Enno)
Merrin (not Meerin)
Taron Malicos (Tare•on Mal•ick•ose) (not Tay-ron Malickuss)
and Wanderer (not Wonder)
I feel like I’m watching Key & Peele. Crazy when they pronounce everything correctly like 10x or more in the game itself. Dude just likes to rewrite the canon atp.
Glad you posted this. I tried to get into the game but man it's pretty rough. Bad controls, bad camera, bad combat, bad level design... Playing it feels like work.
Here hoping we see taron malicos again! I know merrin submerged him into the mountains somewhere, but we never see a body sooo...?
This is what I needed...I 100%'d this game and still find this helpful!
sick stuff dude
I never thought I'd hear y'all name drop KRYSTAL on this channel. That's my absolute favorite place to eat and I loved that y'all mentioned it!
Solid video. Very concise and now I remember what happened. I totally forgot about Vader destroying everything and having a blast.
Thank you.
This video just got me super pumped to play Jedi:Survivor now! Lol now I gotta go play Fallen Order again.
Eno became a jedi after he left Chulak and changed his name from Bra'tac!
It's such a fantastic game. I'm so excited for Jedi Survivor
I appreciate the video. I'm not a gamer so I'll never play this, but felt like I was missing out on important content. Thanks!
Gratitude for info
I love this channel so much. Ive never been one for video games so getting videos like these to keep me up to date with star wars lore is so helpful! Huge fan!
5:30 had me rolling. That was a good one.
Doing the Halcyon this summer...can. not. wait.
Thank you very much. Bout to start jedi survior now. P.s love the dog!
Great video! And Doug is too funny! Ahahhaa
I need to play this again very stoked for the sequel
This is the first game i have ever preordered, I never seen a sequel add so much stuff before.
And I know someone in the comments will say “uhhhhh, actually this game had a better sequel that added more stuff”. I really don’t play many games with sequels so I wouldn’t know
Love the dog and it’s voice. 😂
Thank you so much!!! I’m not a gamer but I’ve felt left out from the lore of this game!
Dude, I spent three hours watching all cinematic parts of this game a few weeks ago , to get more background info (I hate videogames). Could’ve saved me sooo much time. 😂😂😂
This is exciting I didn't think you'd be getting into games too
Fallen Order is incredible
Hope this Dog has a nice Life for his hard Work❤
I hope you cover Republic commando! Maybe a couple more games in the future 😅
Insane.. i was just looking for a vid like this before the new release and my fav channel uploaded on 20 mins ago 😅
7:16 I nearly spit my drink laughing - i was not ready for that. xD
Is it just me or have Doug's one-liners been absolutely hilarious the past month
Woohoo love your vids! Jedi Survivor playthrough with Doug??
paws crossed
I cant wait for jedi survivor!
This really makes you feel like you got survivor for christmas and don't want to wait(i might come back at some point)
7:12 was to great 🤣🤣
As much as I would have loved to replay Fallen Order, time was not on my side, so thanks for this
StarKiller base is confirmed to be on Ilum, the super weapon relies on the Kyber deposits
OMFG! That line from Anakin at around 7:13 😂 "what!?"
that "what" from anakin was personal😄😄
I hope we see Cal, BD1, and Marrin in a movie or show! The game was great and the new one comes out in a week. I love how they added Saw in the game and his appearance in Andor, it shows a thicker plot for him.
Finally got Fallen Order and totally forgot the story from the first game. So thanks for this.
Why are these games the best? They’re new lore but fit so well into canon I love it
It’s cool to know that cal is only 12 years older than Luke so technically it’s not impossible for his appearance in the movies, he’d be like 65 in rise of skywalker
Awesome as always! Thanks for these explanations. Can you please now make a video about The Force Unleashed? Never played it and will like to understand that story in the main Star Wars story line. Thanks again!
It’s not canon like this game though
There’s some stuff from the battle scars book that might of been helpful to include but overall a good summary.
"a hair designer's now edited Instagram post" thanks for doing all the work y'all. And I love Doug asking questions from our point of view, it really helps this stuff make sense. More Doug please :)
i bought jedi survivor today 3 more days to go im very excited im either gonna wear the hermit costume probaly or if there is a poncho the ponco, poncho is life
Huh I didn’t know the game was an important part of the canon. Nice!
I can’t find the disc to replay before I get the new one so here I am🤣
Thanks for making this video, I wasn't fan of the game design, I found it boring and repetitive, I couldn't get through it.
I appreciate having the story distilled like this, very helpful!
Ilum wasn't likely used by the First Order to create Starkiller base, it was Starkiller base. The Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary confirmed that if I remember right.
Yes, and screen crush had said that before so someone messed up while writing
It would make sense if the Magistrate was from Dathomir cos it's the only way that fight with Ahsoka could be fair is if she's a force user.
They said Morgan Elsbeth was a Nightsister but also that there was more than one group of Nightsisters so I doubt she is Merrin
Hope dark maul or obi wan kenobi makes an appearance in survivor somehow.
Maul, Kenobi is watching Luke
i doubt the magistrate is merrin mostly as it would be a big turn for her to have switched from aiding surviving jedi to working for thrawn (and the empire) given what she has seen it does
....AND not to forget... there is the tie in book between the two games called Jedi Battle Scars...
Glad you did this. I played the game and all I remember is getting a short distance into the game and some unbeatable frog kept beating me so I quit.
7:15 "Knights him as a jedi master"
Anakin: DAFUG they just do?!
Love this damn game
Hahahah that would be Anakin's exact reaction!
Did they stop making Fifa, Madden, or Apex
I really hope we get Obi Wan in the second game. 10 years after Order 66 seems too perfect not to. And Ewan even mentioned taking video games into account in an interview
This game needs to be adapted into a live action show
You forgot about the ninth sister being bested by Cal
1 to like and comment. Thanks Ryan and Doug.
